The story today is that he was “camped out” there for 12 hours prior. That would rule out following the motorcade to the golf course.
BINGO! You got it. He knew he was coming that day. He infiltrated the area during the night and waited. This was planning with knowledge. Oddly his choice of weapon was poor. His planning was poor also. With a Gilly Suit and a rifle that had camo on it, the agent would have never spotted the shooter and a good chance that Trump would have been killed.
The real question is how in the hell he knew Trump was coming. This was an unannouced vist. Only Trumps close associates and the secret service knew of this. Either the shooter is clairvoyant or there is a mole in Trumps associates or the secret service. My bet is the secret service.
Odd is it not that the left screams about gun violence and it is always the leftist nuts encouraged by hate rhetoric of the left that is shooting at the right? The boys on the right have many adept deer hunters, they would not miss. We do not shoot at the leftists. We are law abiding citizens. Those leftist bastards shoot at us. They are inspired by hate speech of the left. They compare Trump to Hitler, Mussolini, and dictators. In WWII to kill Hitler or Mussolini would be a patriotic act. The leftist hate speech inspires these nuts to shoot at Trump. They think they are patriots. The left owns this!
